The Arctic Ocean's surface temperature and salinity vary seasonally as the ice cover melts and freezes; [4] its salinity is the lowest on average of the five major oceans, due to low evaporation, heavy fresh water inflow from rivers and streams, and limited connection and outflow to surrounding oceanic waters with higher salinities.

For the ocean this is a bit trickier than a dammed river held at a constant level by adjusting the gates so inflow matches outflow.
